Reminiscent of better times.

Fading waters show the way,
Earthen mounds spread the path,
Showers and sparks mar the perfection,
Like a knife through the sand.

Marked beauty of life,
Marred by living.

Drifting along in the current,
Nothing stopping total destruction,
Hung from the rafters,
Like the Christmas mistletoe.

Marked beauty of life,
Marred by living.

Droplets like the falling rain,
Dripping along the porcelain banks,
Allowing for not a mistake,
Fast moving and deathly quiet.

Marked beauty of life,
Marred by living.

Fading, drifting droplets,
Marked as the path to take,
Currents of hatred running like rain,
Allowing mistake the manifest freely.

Marked beauty of life,
Fading everyday.
Marked beauty of life,
Drifting to the currents.
Marked beauty of life,
Droplets of better times,

Marked beauty of life,
Marred by living.

Reminiscent of better times.
